Story
Creative work doesn't come with a guarantee. But there is a pattern to who succeeds and who doesn't. And engaging in the consistent practice of its pursuit is the best way forward. Based on the breakthrough Akimbo workshop pioneered by legendary author Seth Godin, The Practice will help you get unstuck and find the courage to make and share creative work. Godin insists that writer's block is a myth, that consistency is far more important than authenticity, and that experiencing the imposter syndrome is a sign that you're a well-adjusted human.

We have been spoon-fed the notion that creativity is the province of genius - of those favored, brilliant few whose moments of insight arrive in unpredictable flashes of divine inspiration. And if we are not geniuses, we might as well pack it in and give up. Either we have that gift, or we don’t. But Allen Gannett shows that simply isn’t true. Recent research has shown that there is a predictable science behind achieving commercial success in any creative endeavor, from writing a popular novel to starting up a successful company to creating an effective marketing campaign.

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

Resistance kicks everyone's butt, and the desire to defeat it is equally as universal. The War of Art identifies the enemy that every one of us must face, outlines a battle plan to conquer this internal foe, then pinpoints just how to achieve the greatest success.

Think about your five closest friends. Are they happy? Do they live their lives with purpose? Do you? We put on a fake front for what we want people to see and think about us, but the reality is most people aren’t happy. We’re lost. We settle. We aren’t happy with where we are. You can’t be happy if you don’t know your purpose. It’s not possible. You want more but you don’t even know where to start. You know there is more out there. You see others having success and you want it, too; there is nothing wrong with that. You just need help finding your purpose.

What is genius? The word evokes iconic figures like Einstein, Beethoven, Picasso, and Steve Jobs, whose cultural contributions have irreversibly shaped society. Yet Beethoven could not multiply. Picasso couldn’t pass a fourth grade math test. And Jobs left high school with a 2.65 GPA. The Hidden Habits of Genius explores the meaning of this contested term, and the unexpected motivations of those we have dubbed "genius" throughout history, from Charles Darwin and Marie Curie to Leonardo Da Vinci and Andy Warhol to Toni Morrison and Elon Musk.

Publisher's summary
Life isn’t about “finding” fulfillment and success - it’s about creating it. Why then has creativity been given a back seat in our culture? No longer.
A Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times and Publishers Weekly Best Seller
Creativity is a force inside every person that, when unleashed, transforms our lives and delivers vitality to everything we do. Establishing a creative practice is therefore our most valuable and urgent task - as important to our well-being as exercise or nutrition.
The good news? Renowned artist, author, and CreativeLive founder, Chase Jarvis, reminds us that creativity isn't a skill - it's a habit available to everyone: beginners and lifelong creators, entrepreneurs to executives, astronauts to zookeepers, and everyone in between. Through small, daily actions we can supercharge our innate creativity and rediscover our personal power in life.
Whether your ambition is a creative career, completing a creative project, or simply cultivating a creative mindset, Creative Calling will unlock your potential via Jarvis’s memorable “IDEA” system:
- Imagine your big dream, whatever you want to create - or become - in this world.
- Design a daily practice that supports that dream - and a life of expression and transformation.
- Execute on your ambitious plans and make your vision real.
- Amplify your impact through a supportive community you’ll learn to grow and nurture.

What if the smartest people in the world understand something that the rest of us don't? (They do.) What if they know that in order to achieve success, they will sometimes have to do things that others may initially perceive as stupid? The fact of the matter is that the smartest people in the world don't run from stupid, they lean into it (in a smart way). In The Power of Starting Something Stupid, Richie Norton redefines stupid as we know it, demonstrating that life-changing ideas are often tragically mislabeled stupid.

Careers are not linear, predictable ladders any longer; they are fluid trajectories. No matter our age, life stage, bank account balance, or seniority, we are all being asked to navigate career changes much more frequently than in years past. The average employee tenure in America is just four to five years, and even those roles change dramatically within that time. Our economy now demands that we create businesses and careers based on creativity, growth, and impact. In this dynamic world of work, the only move that matters is your next one.

The law of attraction tells us that whatever we focus our attention on, consciously or not, we attract into our lives. Think happy thoughts, enjoy happy experiences. And vice versa. The best-selling Begin with Yes introduces the law of action, a principle that reverses the order - and is equally powerful: What we do affects how we think and the kinds of experiences we have. When we take small, manageable steps, we feel more positive, and our lives flow more smoothly. Begin with Yes is all about setting things in motion and opening new doors. Getting unstuck.

Practical, Actionable Advice for Creatives
Every facet of this book is wonderful, from the way the topics are organized to the digestible, easy to understand concepts. Chase uses his personal experiences to weave the topics together, but it's about so much more than his own process and success. He offers practical advice for people at all stages of creativity, and ideas that work in any creative pursuit... And underpinning it all, the most important concept of all: DO THE WORK.
I will be recommending this book to all of my creative friends, and holding this information near and dear to my heart as I slog through my own weaving, unsure ups and downs along this creative journey.

As someone who religiously listened to Chase's podcast prior to listening to the book, I found so much clarity and the hard truth in the subjects that so many others hesitate to tackle. If you are a creator, someone who is trying to pursue their dreams or someone that just wants to live a healthier and meaningful I can promise you that you will find tons of value and inspiration in the book. It doesn't matter if you're trying to find your path as a beginner or a pro this book is priceless. It can be eye opening and above all it's simply priceless to read/listen to. Can't recommend it enough!

Rediscovering my Creative Calling
I am a photographer myself and I have been stuck in a rut with my work. Chase, is someone who I have been paying attention to for the last few years. From following his work to being a member of creative live to diving into his renowned podcasts. When I heard he wrote a book I pre-ordered it and bought it then I read it immediately. As of recently, with my creative rut, I took time to listen to it through audible. I really enjoyed it and rediscovered the fire inside of myself to think differently and create differently!
I would recommend this book for sure!

What was Needed
Ok so I’ve been back into photography for the last two years, taking photos, watching YouTube tutorials signed up for NYIP. I’ve learned the technical through and through because I’ve always been a technical person, but I’ve struggled with the creative part. I can give you the best lighting for most situations but creating I have an issue. This book gave me direction it showed me that what I am now can be developed and molded into what I am trying to be, what I’m trying to accomplish. Chase gave excellent advise on finding that direction and building upon in and things to change in my life to help assist with the change of becoming a creative. This book came when I needed it most, and I appreciate all the lessons given in it. So buy the book you won’t be disappointed, and Chase thanks for all the great advice.

Inspiring! The gentle kick in A$$ in needed...
As a long time student of Creative Live I was highly anticipating the release of it’s founder Chase Jarvis’ book ‘Creative Calling’. It did not disappoint! As a matter of fact, I listened to the audio recording, and ordered the hardcover copy, which I also highly recommend. Filled with stories of his own and others who have followed their creative longings, it also gives practical steps and inspiration to do the work to get after yours. This is one you’ll want to give a second read or listen to...yeah, it’s that good. Get the book and just get started!

Just what I needed!!
This book came into my life at the perfect time! And the audiobook made it feel like Chase was talking specifically to me, as if we were having a conversation.
Creative Calling re-inspired me and answered questions I didn’t even know I had!
Wherever you are on your creative journey - get this book!!
